September 2020

Event date: 1st September 2020

The sixth ONE Life Sciences Leadership Forum will explore intellectual property and clinical pathway strategies.

HGF Partner Craig Thomson, Senior Trade Mark Attorney Caroline Pigott and CEO of clinical trials management company Afortiori Development Nicola Wall will host the session, where they will investigate how to manage the complex and costly challenges of pursuing IP protection for your technology and growing brand, setting up a clinical pathway and secure marketing approval for the product.

This session will explore how to bring these challenges into a coordinated strategy specifically designed to support each other, as well as the broader commercial goals of your company, such as raising investment. It will also include an interactive discussion, work through a scenario based on real-life situations and guidance on how to apply the lessons learned.
